Hey, that sounds perfectly normal to me. Doesn't everyone behave that way? It's the hiding that I hate so much, probably because it's another "secret" I carry with me.

My father taught me to drink too. Actually, I'm pretty sure he plied me w/alcohol at a very young age so that when I had my first sip as a teenager I clearly remember it as coming home. Comfort all the way.

I'd be interested to see what you come up w/EMDR and drinking. Ever since you mentioned it, I've thought about talking to my T about it. Does your T really think it could help? That would be wonderful--almost the magic bullet, but I know what I want is probably more than what the therapy can deliver.

P.S. my father made it to 63; he quit before bypass surgery four years before. Like my mother, he just quit, so there's this idea of weakness of character in our family if you just can't quit. Another thing to feel guilty about.
